Question # 1: Literature helps us to understand the character traits and motives of many different people. Some people are similar to us, and others are very different. Write a well developed paragraph in which you tell me which character in The Outsiders you are most like and why. You may choose any character, but you must make sure you connect to them in some real way.

I think the character I am most related to is Ponyboy. I chose Ponyboy because we both are around the same age and have same personality traits, such as smart, talented, kind, and studious. Even though Pony boy is fourteen and I'm twelve I think we still have a lot of similarities. I would also like to relate to him because we are both sensitive and shy kinds of people. We both are the kinds of people that are sensitive to actions and ideas and get really nervous when things don't look good for us. So this is the person I think I'm most related to.
